Meet Ridge and Brooke's 'new son'

Johannesburg - The world’s most-watched soapie is making a few casting changes.

From 14 September, American B&B fans will see a new actor playing Ridge and Brooke’s (Thorsten Kaye and Katherine Kelly Lang) now-teenage son, RJ.

Anthony Turpel (whose credits include Life In Pieces and Future Shock) will take over from Mace Coronel as the little-seen RJ Forrester.

Meanwhile, Bold has also put out a casting call for the recurring role of Isabel. They’re looking for well-known actresses to play the part of Isabel, who’s described as “Hispanic. 45-50 years old…. Spanish-speaking a plus and comedic training a plus. Sexy and irreverent.”

We’ll see both of these changes on Bold screens in South Africa from next year.
